New Collections 2015: A Neglected Baseball Set

I've mentioned in the past that when I worked for the wholesale distributor back in the early 80's I picked up boxes of baseball cards that I put aside for several years. Eventually this resulted in the 1983 and 1984 Topps sets that I was able to binderize and complete last year.

Well, there was another few boxes that I bought at the time, 1983 Fleer. I actually had gotten pretty close to a complete set (and then some) from the 2 wax boxes I had ripped, and I had them in a binder at one time. Somewhere along the way I decided I didn't like the set so much and had no desire to finish it so I broke it up and started trading and selling some away. The rest ended up in a box.

Over the holiday last week I was doing some sorting and came across the cards, so I decided to see what I had left of the set. Surprisingly, with all the dupes I had, I still had close to a complete set so I put them in a binder and here I am.
